You added it globally and to every zone? Also allow-transfer is a nice
own to get into place. But you will see queries being denied and if you
check those IP's you'll see that they don't run any nameserver. So
don't worry to much.

I did but wasn't impressed, only when the new cyberangels was making
sure we needed to handle an extra 6 a 700 q/s ;-)

It wasn't meant to be a serieus option, but then again people form
newroot think it can be a serieus option.

I did what you have done a time ago and I just made sure everything was
working well and the configuration was correct. After a week or two I
didn't care anymore and nothing was broken in those two weeks what
resulted in turning of some logging. And just like I said before, the
IP's I have checked didn't run any "public" nameserver as far I could
check.
